[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel

[Dragonstrike]

Eh... All of that were more of background issues though, as Mina pretty much felt alive now. Right, if she activelly seeks for it, she was able to feel her pulse, her blood streaming. Well, steraming though her veins, not over her clothes. She was breathing normal, nothing really gave her a feeling that she was 'a spirit' or 'a soul' right now. This matched Reiner's mentioning that he's not a weird kind of angel, nor was this heaven shaped like a familiar Art Studio. (If heaven took this shape, she would not really mind though once have gotten used to the thought that this was eternity). 'A little divine intervention'? Hmm, somewhat Mina could guess what he might mean by that. It took her more than usual to speak up here, her laid-back attitude made room for a bit of seriousness. "There was light. Blue-white light that suddenly appeared at the end of the pitchblack nightmare, and I felt attracted and familiar with/by that light. It...came running at me and before I could prevent or fully process it, it chrashed into me. Was this that 'little divine'? How d'y ou even knooow this all? Do you...think that light has something to do with how my hair's now so white and skin so pale?"

Reiner puts the cap back on his head.

"I don't just think that's why.  I know, as I am not just another Dragon Tamer.  The one who revived you was the mythical Mew.  My partner and friend."

He opens his eyes.  They're glowing a little now.

"...but she couldn't revive you without paying a cost.  A life for a life.  She told me there were a few options, but the least consequence ridden one was to use one of your own pokemon instead of someone else's or a wild one.  She presented your Ninetales and Luxelong with a choice.  They discussed amongst themselves...and it was your Ninetales who volunteered in the end."

"...unfortunately, few drawbacks does not mean none.  This isn't the first time Mew and I have had to revive someone this week, and there's a very distinct pattern in every revival we've performed so far.  The person or pokemon being revived ends up taking on some of the traits of who is used as the sacrifice.  Your hair is white to match her coloration, and lengthened significantly.  You're now about 7 feet tall.  You're exuding a cold aura of some kind now as well.  Any traits or abilities your Ninetales had, you might now be able to use as if they were your own...with a little practice."

...

"...before Mew revived you, your Ninetales passed their final words to her to deliver to you, and she has informed me of what they are."

When she awakens from death, tell her I am grateful for all the wonderful times we have shared, and for her to remain strong and committed to her passion, and to remain as she always has been: carefree, serene, and at peace with the world. Tell her not to mourn greatly for me, for I will always be a part of her forever more, providing for them what I could not as I am now.... 

"...if you doubt me, I have a few pieces of proof I can provide. Aside from Mew herself, since I'd rather not wake her if she's still sleeping, but I can attempt to rouse her if needed.  The first evidence would be Momochi.  She was present for the entire exchange and subsequent revival from what Mew told me.  The second..."

Reiner pulls out the pokeballs that he'd gotten from Mina's bag, and tosses them to her.

"...we found your bag in a neighboring alley last night, just before we found you had perished.  In it was almost all of your belongings and both your Ninetales and Luxelong.  You'll be needing those back, but you might notice that Ninetales's pokeball is no longer registered to a pokemon.  I've left the item they were holding in there for you, though.  Another member of my group has your bag and the rest of your items, though I fear the red paint seems to have become mixed with blood."

...

"...that light you saw was likely your fox.  Their soul as it merged with yours to save your life..."

...

"...and don't worry about your Ribombee.  We found her later.  KOed with many scratches and bruises from when she probably tried to resist what killed you, but otherwise unharmed.  I gave her to Mr. Mime to get properly treated last night.  She should be fine, and is probably going to be very happy to see you."
